A Boom In Burgiaries Out In q Growing

KANSAS CITY, June 26-Witchita,
Kan, has boom of which she is not very
proud. During the past three or four days
she has been oyerrun with footpads. They
began to drop-into town last Tuesday, and
since then nearly one hundred burglaries
have been committed, one man killed, .
dozen men held up on the principal street,
an editor and a policeman being among the
victims, and no one has been arrested.
Tuesday night George Chastain, promin-
ent citizen, attacked tramp who had in
suited his wife, and was stabbed in
the heart. His assailant cs-
capped. Wednesday night Police
man Joseph Hooker was kept still by
masked and armed man in his own house,
while two other men ransacked the prem
ises- When they left they took Hooker's
uniform, club and badge. On Thursday
night Leo Redding, editor Of the Wichita
Journal, was held up by two masked men
near the Public Square, and relieved OF his
watch and S65. Twenty-seven gold and
thirty-five silver watches have been taken.
Over twenty-five burglaries are reported
nightly. No arrests have been made, and
in addition to vigorously denouncing the
city authorities and police, the citizens are
organizing Vigilance Committee. Dealers

THE CROPS.
A Favorable Bulletin from the Signal Ser
vice Headquarters.

Favorable Bulletin from the Stgnhi SER
vice Headquarters.
WASHINGTON, June 26.-The weekly
weather and crop report Of the Signal office
says:
The weather during the week has been
generally favorable for the principal crops.
Rain in the South Atlantic States doubt
less improved the condition Of the staple
crops in that region. More rain is needed
in the cotton region, and indications this
morning are that rain will occur in the
Lower Mississippi and Ohio Valleys by
Monday forenoon. The weather has been
favorable for harvesting in the wheat regions
there having been an excess Of sunshine
and very little rain. In the corn region
the weather has been generally favorable,
although in some localities more rain is
needed, and the cool weather of the past
week must have slightly retarded the
growth of the corn crop. In New England,
where haying has been in progress, the
conditions have been especially favorable
to the hay crop. All crops in this section
and the middle Atlantic States have been
improved by the rains, although in the
northern portions of New England and New
York there has been less than the usual
amount of sunshine, attended by cold
weather.

Interesting Gossip About Ohio League
Matters.
Clark and Stentzel will be the Wheeling
battery to-day.
Wheeling played good ball last week and
she will now begin TO "climb the golden
stairs"
The Mansfield base ball club arrived in
the city last evening, and are quartered at
the Howell.
Daniel Kurtz, an Allegheny pitcher, is
on trial with the Akrons He joined them
here Saturday.
In the Sunday games between American
Association clubs, Louisville defeated Gin
cinnati by score Of 10 3, and Brooklyn
downed the Athletics by 8 10 4.
Go over and see the Mansfelds with
their new uniforms. They have been great
ly strengthened by the recent addition Of
Blair, one Of Zanesville's best pitchers, and
will make the home team work hard 10
win.
Zanesville will play two games in Wheel
ing July 4th, weather permitting. The
all the snaps, and you can cut II out and
paste it that the ex-leaders will be here on
that date.
One OF the players was called down by
Capt Crogan on Friday for attempting TO
steal third with no one out This il poor
base-running as man has too good an OPP
portunity TO score on q hit 70 risk any
thing by useless steal.
The crowd at Saturdays game was the
most disorderly yet seen on the home
grounds. The public should be given to
understand that the umpire has the priv.
lege of giving the game 10 the visiting
club, in cases Of this sort, and govern
themselves accordingly.
Akron lost a game 10 Columbus yester-
day, which puts Wheeling third once
more. II tis to be hoped the boys win keep
it solid now that they have it, As Akron
plays at Zanesyille Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday, and Wheeling meets Mans
field on the same dates, il is expected that
the home team viii strengthen their grip
on the petition.
In conversation with one Of the direc-
tors Of the Wheeling team Last night, he
expressed his indignation IL very strong
terms concerning the fact that some en-
thusiastie, but misguided admirers Of the
players were o6ering them beeS by the keg
and half keg for winning games There Il
no Decessity Of Offering the men anything
for doing what they are paid to do, and il
is worse than useless 10 give them stuh
that will render them unfit to do their
duty.

Last Nights Meeting at the New York
Academy of Music.
NEW YORK, June 26.-The Anti-POv-
erty Society's meeting at the Academy ct
Music tonight WAS presided over by Abner
C. Thomas His illusions to DR.. McGlynn's
coming communication caused the
large audience to shout, 1--WE will stand
by him." Mr.. Morrison asserted
that Dr. McGlynn's punishment was an
Douneed by the voice of Pope Leo, but
WAS caused by the hand of Joseph J. O'DOn-
ohue. Henry George met with the usual
reception. When Archbishop Corrigan's s
name was mentioned there
WAS storm of misses. Mr..
George contended that the misery of pow
erty was not due to the will of God, but to
Injustice of man TO man. In reply to q
question, Mr.. George said that I'VE can
not too carefully keep out Chinese from this
country"
When asked if the increased value OF a
house might not justify the owner in rails
ing the rent, the agitator said he thought
not, but that ''our system" would correct
all that by ballot. His hkening Pope Leo
and Cardinal Simeoni TO an Orgau-grinder
aud his monkey, created crest laughter
and applause.

killed. His mother followed him. In her
descent she struck upon the railinss In

The Same Racket at Rowslsburg.

ROWEIsRURG, w. VA. June 26.-This
place was the scene Of wholesale drugging
and robbery on Thursday night, the
visitors who went to see a game
of base ball being among the losers. From
queer feelings complained Of by the
victims the next morning il is evident that
they were chloroformed before they were
robbed. Hotels were cleaned out and
many private dwellings were served
the same way. The River House guests
were heavy sufferers, eight wstches
being missed and all the clothing
one fellow possessed except the garments
in which he slept. At one Of the hotels a
guest saved his watch and jewelry by con-
cealing' them between the mattresses be-
fore he retired. The town was thoroughly
done up, railroad men, citizens and visitors
being robbed alike.
Suspicion attaches TO several hard look
ing characters who loafed about town that
evening and disappeared with night. The
amount Of the losses will be several hun
dred dollars. A number Of parties are
seriously sick from the effects Of the chic

THE BROKEN BANK.
The Bank Examiner Gives Out Some
Facts of Interest.

The Bank Examiner Gives Out Some
Facts OF Interest.
CINCINNATI, June 26.-The hank ex-
aminer has made public a statement Of the
resources and liabilities of the broken bank,
which shows that, if his expectations are
realized, depOsitors will get about 50 cents
on the dollar. In his analysis of the re-
sources Of the bank, the examiner begins
with the bills receivable. OF the 81, ,6OO,-
600 in notes on hand between $500, 900 and
500, 600 were given by Z. l.. Harper, Swift
Iron and Steel Works and Louis Kennedy
and receipts for new stock to the amount
of S4OO, coo or $500, ,OOO call the whole ST.
POO, 900, which deduct from g, 600, 900 will
leave 81, 400, 900. In consequence of the
hberality of the bank IN lOaning upon
doubtful security, a fair estimate of what
this,.$l, 400, O0Oiwill produce is 50per cent,
or 500, 900. From the latest published
statement of the bank there appears an
item of ''other stocks and bonds worth
$40, 900, and due from banks throughout
the country S2O0,OOO, which may be con-
sidered at their full value.
of four per cent Government bonds, upon
which will be realized $l02, 900 from the
premium, say 80 per cent. The Depart
ment also holds $lO0, ,0OO OF four per cents
to secure circulation of $4,000 issued to
the bank. All the Government wants is
500, 900 in greenbacks with which to re-
deem the circulation, and if the 100000
of four per cents are sold at $780,
600 there will remain S40,OO0 as an
asset. The premium on the S2O,-
600 of 'other stocks and bonds" may be
estimated At s., 100, aud the interest on the
$40, 600 Of four per cent. bonds held by the
Department. due July 1st is S4,4OO.
There is also per cent redemption paid
on the 500, 900 of circulation, amounting
10 81, 500, which will be returned when
the circulation is taken up.
The double liability of stockholders will
now be considered. On the assumption
that the issue of the new stock was lille
gal, because unauthorized, the capital
stock remains at 81, 900, 900. Mr.. Harper
owned and controlled so much of it that
it is safe to say that only $500, 600 of it is
in the hands OF other holders and only
about 90 per cent. can be collected, which
would produce $3.50, 600. Now add the
cash on hand, which amounts TO only
Sl75, OOO-and it is fortunate that there
was that much-and the total resources
amount to 81, ,499, 900.
The liabilities begin with $3.50, 900 due
depOsitors, $3,OO0,OO0 due banks and
bankers and so on. The sum of the liabili-
ties amount to s., 400 900. The liabilities
are therefore shown to exceed the eresources
S3, 9Ol 900. Now, a little sum in long
division will show that the depositors will
get 3S 4-1O per cent. on the dollar.
The following table shows all the re-
sources and liabilities in detail:

Although no change has taken place in
the condition OF the ripe and fast ripening
winter wheat crops since our report Of last
week, it is gratifying TO note that no mate
rial damage is being done to the crop by
rust. Harvesting operations are progress
ing rapidly and the weather is everywhere
favorable for the work. The growing crops
are in need Of rain in western States. The
hay crop is very light. Corn prospects are
excellent. Fruit prospects are fair.

ROAST PORK.
MILLIONS OF POUNDS OF SHORT RIBS DE-
SrRoYBD BY FIRE,


CHICAGO, June 26.-A million and .
quarter dollars went mp in smoke ut the
Union Stock Yards to-day. Early this
morning one of the employees Of the Chi
cago Packing and Provision Company dis
covered fire in the tank room. In few
moments one of the tanks exploded, scat
tering burning lard over the adjacent
buildings, and dozen separate fires were
sson competing with each other in the do
struction of the immense establishment
Though the fire was struck out" this
evening, fourteen and Q half hours
after il started, the smoldsring en-
bers continued TO laden the air
with the fumes Of roast pork, and
A FIVE ACRE OVEN
will remain on the premises red hot for at
least couple of days The Chicago Pack
ing & Provision Co. s works occupy about
ak acres of ground, but the fire was kept
within the district bounded by Fortieth
street, Centre avenue, Forty-second street
and the. railroad tracks, block west Of
Centre avenue. This territory contained
four large buildings. The main building
was 800 by AIS feet. In IL portion OF
the killing WAS done, and the hanging,
cutting, packing, curing and other work
incidental to o slaughtering establishment.
Except the curing room, in which were
NINETEEN MILLION POUNDS
of short ribs, the main building and its
contents, are q total loss. The curing
room, 100 by $50 feet and four stories
high, lost its roof, but stone fre-walls
saved Its contents, y portion OF them In
roasted condition. On the east aide OF the
main building WAS the warehouse, 40 by
400 feet, with four stories and basement
The two upper floors at the south end were
used for killing purposes. In tbs ware
house were IL, 0OO barrels Of mess pork, be-
longing to Armour & Co. The building
and much Of the pork was wholly destroy
ed. About
THREE THOUSAND LIVE HOGS
were in the building when the fire started,
but the company's employees succeeded In
getting most of them out Between 600
and 700 hogs were burned alive In tho
building. Back Of the main building was
the fertilizing factory, 100 feet square, and
the engine house, 50 by O. feet. Both
structures were burned completely.
Perhaps
THE MOST EXCITING SCENE OF THE DAY
was presented when the men who. attempt
ing to drive through the covered way the
live hogs in the upper stories, were
forced by the flames 10 desist
Below were scores Of workmen
rolling out barrels Of pork.
Down on the crowd pell nell heapcd doz-
ems of afi'righted animals that had jumped
from the windows or spnng through the
open hatchway. The men who had braved
the flames fed from the falling hogs and
at n distance watched for glimpses Of tho
sauealing brutes that, cra1ed with pain,
were rushing madly about in their tall
prison Of FIRE. About two hundred barrels
OF pork were saved before the hogs
jumping During the after-
noon the fremen gave their attention To
saving the short ribs In the curing room.
While q number Of the men were inside
the main building one Of the division walls
fell, seriously injuring J. A. Schaefer,
Thos. Murphy, w. W. White, Captain
Nichols and Thos. Elliott.

The Fight.
How IT STARTED OFF.

The m. .eu seemed anxious for the Tray,
and after s,haking hands with anything
but a pleasant smile for each other, went
at it like infuriSted beasts In the first
round Johns cot tee best Of il, and sue
ceeded, after much preliminary sParrlng,
IN knocking his Antagonist to grass, and
drawing blood. lie was not allowed to 60
unpunished, however. Evans tists getting
an good work on his ribs and breast.
In the second Johns again got his antag-
Onist to earth, both men Sighting hard,
aud Evans getting in some timely
hits, which counted more, Later on, than
at the time they were delivered.
In the third Evans again went to grSss,
his smaller stature and short arms making
Johas' ribs aud body his only possible tar
get, while Johns directed his strength to
Evans face and end.
The fourth WAS repeater, Evans again
being taken away at the eend.
Ia the fifth the Referee called the men
apart, on account Of an unequal start.
In the sixth, Evans showed up to ad-
vantage for the first time, and Johns began
to feel the effect OF the terrible body beat
ing Evans was in each successive round ad-
mlnlstering. The round was give to Evans
BY
AFAIR KNOCK DOWN,
with blow on Johns chest.
In the seventh, the fighters were again
Pailed apart by the seconds, st the instance
ofthe referee.
